When Dragons Came for Christmas

When Dragons Came for Christmas

To Melody of: Frosty The Snowman

Clarence the Dragon came home from the department store
With his soft green skin, and those wings of blue,
And the happy grin he wore.
Clarence the Dragon was a Toys for Tots gift;
He was stuffed with fluff, for a child to love,
But he gave my heart a lift.

He sat in the livingroom
And watched the T.V. with us.
He was fine with whatever was on
And he never made a fuss.

Clara the Dragon came to join him the next week
And quickly she sat right down at his side
And nuzzled up cheek to cheek

Snuggly snug snug, snuggly snug snug,
Look at Clarence smile.
Snuggly snug snug, snuggly snug snug,
They’ll be here for a while.

Both of those Dragons decided they would settle in,
So they dressed up as Thanksgiving pilgrims
And help us feast with our kin.
When the Christmas tree was decorated and lit,
They put on their next holiday caps
And had their own stockings knit.

They moved right in to heart and home
And brighten up the place
With thoughts of a child yet to come
And the smile on her face.

Clarence and Clara, soon they will have to leave us here,
But as we say goodbye, with a heartfelt sigh,
We’ll be filled with Christmas cheer.
